My uncle taught me that knowlegde is power. KNowledge is the greatest power over anything/anyone in the world. But how do we define knowledge? Facts passed on from one to another? What makes the knowledge of one thing greater than another? I don't think it does. All knowledge is equal. You cannot learn how to be rich, how to kill, how to be happy, you cannot learn the meaning of life, you cannot learn a thing without life itself. Every organism on this earth teaches the art of survial from one geration to the next. We humans do not realize the vaule of all living things because we feel we are superior. We feel our knowlegede and abilties have led to technological advancments that a animal couldn't even dream of. However we would not even be alive if it weren't for the cirlce of life, and everything living thing is a part of it. We are all equal in the cotribitions to advancement in our precious circle of life.
